SOMERSWORTH - The Knights of Columbus

Council #2078 free throw com-petition was held at the Tri-City Christian Academy on Jan. 25, and 24 nine to 14-year-old boys and girls from several area towns participated.

Ten champions have earned the right to now compete at the State competition being held Sunday, March 2 at Eliza-beth Seton Church Hall in Bed-ford. Seven of the 10 winners are from Dover or Somersworth.

BERWICK, Maine -Berwick Academy is

pleased to announce that senior Nathaniel Goldblatt of Dover is one of three Berwick Acad-emy students to be named a Presidential Scholar candidate. Goldblatt joins Ian MacFar-lane of York, Maine and Daniel Perreault of Barrington as Ber-wick Academy’s three repre-sentatives.

Each year, over 3,000 can-didates are identified for the academic component of the program based on SAT and ACT scores, and of the 3,000 candidates, up to 141 students are named as Presidential Scholars, one of the Nation’s highest honors for high school students.

The Presidential Scholars Program annually selects one male and one female student from each state (as well as the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and Americans living abroad) along with 15 at-large students and up to 20 students in the arts on the basis of out-

DOVER - Sixteen St. Thomas Aqui-

nas High School students re-cently participated in the sixth annual High School Penguin Plunge to benefit New Hamp-shire Special Olympics.

Over 400 plungers took the jump into the frigid Atlantic Ocean in support of athletes of Special Olympics New Hamp-shire.

St. Thomas Aquinas High School plungers earned third place in the costume parade by sporting their St. Thomas Aqui-nas gear, featuring homemade foam crosses made by sopho-more Megan Brown of Farming-ton, blue and white face paint, and demonstrating loads of

school spirit. St. Thomas Aquinas also

won the NHIAA Division II award in the “King Flock” cat-egory, with the group achieving the highest dollar average raised per plunger.

Junior John Evans of Dover took first place in the “Little Pen-guin” category, by raising the most money ($1,610) by a first year plunger.

The STA plunging team raised nearly $10,000, and ac-cording to Special Olympics New Hampshire, $142,000 was raised in the sixth annual High School plunge.

standing scholarship, service, leadership, and creativity through a rigorous selection and review process admin-istered by the White House Commission on Presidential Scholars and the US Depart-ment of Education.

Approximately 560 of the 3,000 candidates will be named semi-finalists, and up to 141 students will be named Presi-dential Scholars in April.

Director of College Coun-seling Moira McKinnon com-mented, “Nathaniel, Ian, and Dan are hard working and talented students who have challenged themselves with rigorous classes throughout their time in the Upper School. I’m proud that three Berwick Academy students have been nominated in this competitive process; it’s our largest group of nominees in recent history and a testament to the strength of the senior class.”

Founded in 1791, Ber-wick Academy is an indepen-dent, coeducational country

day school located in South Berwick, Maine. For over 200 years, the Academy has pur-sued its mission of promoting “Virtue and Useful Knowl-edge” through a purposeful blend of strong academics, arts, and athletics. Berwick serves nearly 600 students in grades PK-12 from the seacoast area of southern Maine, New Hamp-shire, and northeastern Mas-sachusetts.

Demonstrating their school spirit and excitement for the High School Penguin Plunge, St. Thomas Aquinas High School students and faculty are led by senior Matt Webber of York, Maine in a rousing roller coaster cheer.

SEACOAST - Seacoast area residents

without dental insurance or regular access to dental care are encouraged to participate in the Dentists With a Heart Program being offered during the month of February.

Eligible adults are invited to receive any dental service, like a cleaning or fluoride treat-ment, that could be provided in one visit. Treatment is available on a first come, first served basis through appointments with sea-coast area dentists.

With support from the NH Dental Society and Greater Southeast Component Society, dentists, oral surgeons, dental hy-gienists and other members of the dental team are volunteering time to provide free services as part of this national program.

Dentists With a Heart began in NH in 1988, and has since pro-vided thousands of dollars in free services to area residents.

Most participating offices require participants to call ahead and schedule an appointment, but some are accepting walk-ins. Following is a list of participat-ing dentists along with available

middle-aged tortie gal.Her name suggests a crazy

cat who’s all over the place and that is just not her. Looney is pretty quiet, reserved even, but if you take the time to open her door and pat her, she will turn on her big purr motor and rub her round cheek against you.

Looney is a nice, easy, friendly cat and would be great for a first time pet owner. Maybe you could take her home and you two could hang out and think up a new name for her.

Il-legally posted advertising signs may create a safety hazard for traveling motorists and can be unsightly for residents. Such signs detract from the legitimate business signs approved under the City’s established permitting process.

Business owners who have placed these illegal signs are ad-vised to remove them in advance

of the City’s clean-up effort. Confiscated signs are held for 30 days prior to being recycled or destroyed, unless the sign is claimed by the owner after paying a reclamation fee based on the actual cost of staff hours and equipment use. Repeat of-fenders may be subject to pros-ecution and fines.

DOVER - Living in New Hampshire

has many benefits including the amazing four seasons that we enjoy. However, mixing treacherous winter weather with educational institutions can prove difficult. When the weather makes travel to school unsafe, most schools close for the day and make up that time at the end of the school year.

In 2009, the staff and stu-dents of the Cocheco Arts & Technology Academy found a way to “weatherproof” the school by offering virtual classes online in place of the traditional snow day. Because students who attend CATA come from many surrounding communities, online “Virtual Days” offer the school commu-nity a safe way to hold classes even when road conditions are hazardous.

Students download the links to the virtual classrooms and the times when each of their classes will meet online. Instructors modify the lesson plan to work in an online set-ting and students have the op-portunity to participate via webcam, microphone and/or chat. Interaction with students is relatively seamless, as it

would be in a traditional class-room setting. Attendance is taken and reported as a normal school day, and administration monitors each class to insure that students are participating.

The overall response to virtual days is very positive. Parents and staff alike appreci-ate the safety of not having to drive in hazardous conditions and the ability to maintain an academic calendar. Students also enjoy the novelty of being able to attend class from their living rooms. When warm weather comes, and the rest of New Hampshire is still in school, CATA students will be getting a jump on summer fun.

A snow date, if needed, is on Tues-day March 4 at 6:30 pm.

Gloss will bring to the lec-ture several examples of notable books, magazines and ephem-era from the store’s private col-

“New England homes are treasure-troves for old and rare books that have increased in value over the years,” says Gloss.

Following the talk and question-and-answer session, he will be available for free verbal appraisals of all books and documents that attendees have brought with them.

The Brattle Book Shop is

one of America’s oldest and larg-est antiquarian bookstores. 2014 is the 65th year of Gloss family’s ownership. Kenneth Gloss suc-ceeded his late father, George Gloss, a well-known figure both in Boston and in national anti-quarian circles. Ken became the sole proprietor upon his father’s death several years ago.

Among the many organi-zations in which Kenneth Gloss is a member is the Antiquarian Booksellers Association, the Antiquarian Booksellers Asso-ciation of America, the Inter-national League of Antiquarian Booksellers, the New England Antiquarian Booksellers of America, the Massachusetts and Rhode Island Antiquarian Booksellers Association, the Committee for the Boston In-ternational Antiquarian Book

Fair and the Boston Society. He also is a Fellow of the Mas-sachusetts Historical Society as well as serving on the Board of Overseers of the USS Constitu-tion Museum.

Ken has been a guest ap-

praiser on PBS’ “Antiques Roadshow” numerous times since 2000 and has been a popu-lar guest on WBZ Radio as well as other radio, TV and cable sta-tions. He has published many articles in antique journals both in print and online.

The Brattle Book Shop is the recipient of several “Best of Boston” awards in the catego-ries of Best Book Shop or Best Antiquarian Book Shop. In ad-dition it has been included in a list as one of North America’s best bookstores.

Leasing instead of buying a vehicle has

its benefits. Drivers who lease often cite the fun of

getting a new car every few years and the peace of mind of knowing they won’t have to deal with costly repairs as-sociated with older vehicles as two of the best reasons to lease a vehicle.

While leases make practi-cal sense for many drivers, the leasing process can be tricky to navigate. The following are a few things drivers should know about leasing before signing a new agreement.

Avoid high down payments.Though many drivers are

attracted to leasing because the monthly payments are typically much less expensive than they would if drivers fi-nanced a vehicle, such drivers should know that those low monthly payments are often accompanied by hefty down payments, sometimes as much as several thousand dollars at the time the lease is signed.

to another vehicle. If your lease terms are more than three years, consider purchasing an ex-tended warranty to cover the remaining years of the lease. But in general it’s best to limit leases to three years or less, when the car is unlikely to need repairs and, even if it does, such repairs are likely to be covered by the manufactur-er’s warranty.

This article was provided by MetroCreative. The Weekly Sentinel does not endorse any products or services suggested by MetroCreative articles.

But such hefty down pay-ments can prove problematic if the car is damaged or stolen. In such instances, the insurance company is likely to reimburse the leasing agency for the value of the car, but not the driver. So the driver might be out his or her down payment and be left without a car. That’s why it’s beneficial for men and women leasing a vehicle to keep their down payments to a minimum, and ideally make no down pay-ment at all. This will increase your monthly payment, but you will have the peace of mind of knowing you won’t be out sev-eral thousand dollars should the car be wrecked or stolen during the lease.

Purchase gap insurance.Another financial concern

for lessees is what happens if the car is totaled or stolen. In such instances, the insurance com-pany will reimburse the leasing agent for the value of the car at the time of the accident or theft, but drivers might still be on the hook for the total obligation of

the lease. That means the value reimbursed to the leasing com-pany will be subtracted from the remaining balance on the lease, and drivers will still be respon-sible for paying the difference.

The only way drivers can protect themselves in such in-stances is to purchase gap insur-ance, which will cover the differ-ence should the car be wrecked or stolen. Some leasing contracts already include gap insurance, but drivers should confirm this before signing the agreement.

Buy extra miles in advance. Leases come with mileage

restrictions, and an agreement that comes with an especially low monthly payment will often stipulate that drivers cannot exceed 12,000 miles per year over the life of the lease. If you exceed that limit, the agreement might charge you as much as 25 cents per mile over the limit, which can add up to a consider-able amount of money depend-ing on how many miles over that limit you go. If you know you are likely to exceed 12,000 miles

per year, buy extra miles before signing the agreement. This won’t cost you money up front, but rather will lead to a slightly higher monthly payment.

Don’t sign an agreement that’s too long.

The benefit of leasing is that you aren’t still driving the car when it starts to exhibit the wear and tear that is inevitable with older vehicles. So drivers should limit the terms of their lease to two or three years; a period during which the vehicle will still be under warranty. Once the warranty has expired, it’s time for lessees to move on

RYE - Looking for something to

do with your kids during winter vacation? The Seacoast Science Center will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. starting Feb-ruary 15th.

Pack a snack or lunch and bring your outdoor gear. You can walk the trails of Odiorne Point State Park in search of animal tracks, cross-country ski, snowshoe or look for the snowy owl that has been fre-quenting the shore. Warm up in the Center and have your snack or lunch in the Learning Studio Gallery.

An Environmental camp is being offered for children ages three-and-a-half to fifth graders by the day or for the week. The camp sessions will be offered from Feb. 17 to Feb. 21 and Feb. 24 to Feb. 28. Each day is focused on a different theme and takes advantage of the natural and historic re-sources of the Park.

~ Ask The Computer Lady ~

On April 8, 2014, Windows XP becomes Windows XPired!

Microsoft will stop providing security updates which keep your data safe.

Continuing to use XP will be like leaving home at night, leaving the lights on with the

front door open and a big sign saying, “My Security System is Broken!”

Call The Computer Lady TODAY to help you keep the bad guys out! 207-676-9561

Dear Computer Lady,What is the big deal about

Windows 8? They’re always coming out with new versions. What is so different (and awful) about this one?

Everybody I know just groans and rolls their eyes when it is mentioned, and says stay away from it as long as you can. I’ve adapted to every one that came along, so why is this one so bad?

Thanks, Nancy

Dear Nancy,The big difference with

Windows 8 is that instead of a start menu, there is now a start screen with tiles. It looks more like the screen on a windows phone.

Since this new interface is optimized for a touch screen, it often feels awkward when trying

to navigate with a mouse.I personally don’t think

there is anything awful about this version of Windows, it is just different, and it is part of human nature to dislike change.

The good news is that Win-dows 8 can be customized to look and act like earlier versions of Windows. This gives you the user interface that you are used to, while retaining the updated security of the new operating system. I have customized quite a few Windows 8 computers re-cently, and everyone seems to be happy with it. Elizabeth

Dear Computer Lady,When I purchased my PC,

it came with iTunes installed. I continually get update notices regarding this program and I always allow the update.

I notice that this program

takes up a lot of space. Do I really need it? I don’t listen to music on my PC, and if I did, are there other programs that would take the place of iTunes?

Thank you so much for your help, Ron

Dear Ron,iTunes is the program you

would use to sync an iDevice (like an iPhone, iPod, or iPad) with your computer. You can use it to transfer music, pictures and other files to your iDevice.

If you don’t have one of those apple devices, then you don’t need to have iTunes in-stalled on your computer.

Your computer probably has windows media player in-stalled, and you can use that to listen to music on your PC.Elizabeth

Hi Computer Lady,I have Windows 7 and had

downloaded Quicken Deluxe 2008.

After a computer crash, Windows 7 was restored along with the Quicken files, but I could not reload the software program and therefore was not able to access my Quicken files.

Now I need to know which Quicken Software program to buy for home use so it will allow me to access and update my old files.

I had tried Quicken Starter,

but could never unlock the pro-gram or download it to get it started and sent it back. Hope-fully you have an answer for me.

Many thanks, L. Walker

Dear L,The “Starter” version of

Quicken is only for those who want to start a new file. It does not include the capability of opening an existing Quicken file, which is probably why you were unable to get it to work on your files.

There are several versions of Quicken available that will allow you to access and update your old files. Quicken Deluxe, Quicken Home & Business, and Quicken Premier would all work for you. Elizabeth

Dear Computer Lady,I have new Windows 8

computer.Can I install Microsoft

Office 7 or 10 on my computer? The new Office is good for

one year, while older versions are good for the life of the com-puter and expensive.

Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave,I have not yet experimented

with different versions of Office on Windows 8, but after a bit of research online, it looks like you should be able to run either Office 2007 or 2010 on your new Windows 8 Computer.

I do want to explain a little bit about the new office. There are actually two different ver-sions of Office 2013. One is subscription based. It lets you purchase a one year subscription and use it on up to 5 devices, in-cluding your Mac and tablet. All your work is stored in the cloud so that you can work on your documents in one location and pick right back up where you left off from another location.

Microsoft also sells Office 2013 in a stand-alone version which does not expire after one year, but you can only install it on one computer and it will not be continuously updated like the 360 version.

If both of those options are not in your price range, there is always the free, open source, ver-sion of Office called Open Office at www.openoffice.org. Open source simply means that it was created by a group of volunteers instead of a company. Open Office can read files created in Microsoft Office, and save files in Office format as well.Elizabeth
